Overlapping slots in calendars

You may find that timetable slots show as overlapping in staff or student calendars to only take up 50% of the column width.

The screenshot below shows an slot as expected.

Top Tip: Slots will be squashed vertically if they last 30 minutes or less.

Step 1 - Check the times

Usually this happens when your timetable slots overlap, as in this example.

• 8:20-8:40 and 8:45-9:45 do not overlap
• 8:20-8:40 and 8:40-9:45 do not overlap
• 8:20-8:41 and 8:40-9:45 do overlap

As people can't be in two locations at once, you can prevent this by changing the end time of the first slot, or start time of the second slot. You can see how to do this here: Changing the Start and End Times of timetable slots

Step 2 - Contact us

You may find that timetable slots are squashed horizontally in calendars to take up only 50% of the column width, even if the times do not overlap.

If this happens, neither you or your Support Team will not be able to resolve this. If you have feedback on how calendars work, please let us know here: New Calendar Component
